The name Jacion is of Hebrew origin and means "God will hear." It is a variation of the more common name Jacob, which is derived from the Hebrew name Ya'aqov. In the Bible, Jacob is the son of Isaac and Rebecca, and he wrestled with an angel all night until he received a new name, Israel.
The name Jacion has not been widely used throughout history, but it has appeared in various cultures and languages over time. It was recorded as a given name for boys born in France during the 20th century, and it has also been found among the nobility of Poland and Russia.
Today, Jacion is still quite rare, with only a small number of people bearing this name worldwide. However, its unique sound and biblical origins may make it appealing to parents looking for an uncommon yet meaningful name for their son.
The name Jacion has seen varied popularity over the past decade and a half in the United States, with fluctuations in its number of annual births. In 2007, there were 5 babies named Jacion born. This number increased slightly to 8 in 2009 before jumping significantly to 13 in 2012.
In recent years, the popularity of Jacion has been more consistent. From 2013 to 2016, the number of births per year ranged from a high of 72 in 2013 to a low of 46 in 2015, with a peak of 51 in 2016.
However, since then, there has been a steady decline in the number of Jacion births. From 2017 to 2019, the numbers were 40, 30, and 31 respectively. This downward trend continued into the pandemic years with 26 births each in 2020 and 2021, and a further decrease to 23 in 2022.
The most recent data from 2023 shows another decline, with only 18 Jacion babies born that year. Overall, since 2007, there have been a total of 454 Jacion births in the United States.
